Urgent calls needed to Senator Kaine about UN Disabilities Treaty

Please call Senator Kaine.

HSLDA President Mike Smith has been an advocate for homeschooling for more than 30 years.Read more >>

Dear Virginia HSLDA Members and Friends,

Your U.S. Senator, Tim Kaine, is a member of the U.S. Senate's Foreign Relations Committee. The Committee will hold a hearing on whether the United States Senate should ratify the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) on Tuesday, November 5, at 2:30 PM.

It is critical that Senator Kaine hears loud and clear from his constituents about this dangerous United Nations treaty. Senator Kaine was not in office last time the Senate voted on the CRPD, but is a strong supporter of the treaty.

Please call Senator Kaine right now at his DC office, as well as his district offices and urge him to oppose the UN CRPD. Senator Kaine’s D.C. office number is 202-224-4024 and you can also call any of his district offices at the following numbers:

“I urge you to oppose the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. This treaty surrenders U.S. sovereignty to unelected UN bureaucrats and will threaten parental care of children with disabilities. Our nation already has laws to protect Americans with disabilities. This treaty is unnecessary and will hurt families by giving bureaucrats the power to decide what is in the best interests of a child with disabilities, not the child’s parents.”
